Mix the sauce: In a small bowl, combine the barbecue sauce and honey. Stir until well blended.
Apply the sauce: Brush the barbecue mixture generously over each bacon-wrapped chicken breast.
Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes.
Rest and serve: Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
